Abstract
This report presents a case of observation of a patient for 61 years after surgical treatment of pulmonary artery stenosis with good long-term clinical and functional results: during this time, the patient had no clinical manifestations, he led an active lifestyle. The appearance of a stress angina clinic for a long time after surgery was associated with the presence of a concomitant pathology – a muscle bridge.
